Coming off a tough week in Central New York, the Rocket returned home for a showdown with another North Division foe, the Belleville Senators. Minus a handful of their top stars, the Rocket managed a 1-1-1 record overall, losing to Utica in overtime, Syracuse in regulation, and toppling Binghamton in their lone win.
Charlie Lindgren was back between the pipes after splitting time with Zachary Fucale on the road trip last week. For the Senators, Danny Taylor was in net. Also of note was that Markus Eisenschmid and Tom Parisi both suited up for their 100th career AHL games.
